CVE-2025-39898 has been rejected or withdrawn by its assigning CVE Numbering Authority. The rejected record was associated with a reported heap-based buffer overflow in the Linux kernel Intel e1000e Ethernet driver's e1000_set_eeprom() handler. Insufficient validation of the requested EEPROM update length could result in an oversized heap operation and memory corruption. Upstream remediation added requested-length validation and changed a relevant length variable from int to size_t.
